Visit us soon and let your pets Run, Rest and Restore their minds and bodies with guidance from a friendly licensed professional...
Studies have shown us that living with pets relieves stress, promotes social interaction, and improves our own emotional and physical health. At the von Trapp Animal Lodge, we give back to our selfless companions - pets give us so much yet they ask for very little in return. Allow your furry friends to experience our unique pet retreat, which provides alternative sources of pain and stress relief as well as the opportunity to safely socialize with other animals, all while you’re at work or on vacation.

Betsy von Trapp
DVM, CCRP, CVMA
Betsy von Trapp is a native Savannahian. She went to vet school at UGA and worked briefly in Boston, MA following vet school before returning home. After a few years in private practice she found her passion for veterinary rehabilitation and the idea for the von Trapp Animal Lodge emerged.
Betsy enjoys spending time with her husband, Jake, and her three children, Isabella, Jack and Charlotte, as well as spending time outdoors and reading. Betsy has one dog, Annie, whom you will likely see around the clinic. Annie has been the inspiration to providing local pets a fun, safe and stimulating place to spend their days.
